  • Recommendations for aftermarket rotors?

    Has anyone bought/installed aftermarket replacement rotors? If so, what good or bad experiences have you had? I'm not able to do an Aspire brake upgrade right now, but I will have to replace my rotors like Real Soon.

    There's a big gamut of replacement rotors available: Beck/Arnley, Raybestos, etc ad nauseum.
    Anyone have a recommendation?

    Thanks for your time!

      The Brembos are what Roger at FMS sold me, and he usually carrys about the best replacements that are out there. Beck Arnley are usually top shelf parts too. I have not got around to using mine yet, so I can't comment on actual usage though. Something else on the list..........

            I bought some Raybestos PG rotors , guaranteed not to warp .

            I went through 2 sets of stock replacement rotors before I got these , in less than 1 year .

            These have been on the car for 3 years , and I have not had 1 issue ,no warping .

              If you don't mind changing them every year buy those cheap china made rotors and pads.
              You get what you pay for.
